UTILIZATION OF MICROPHONE ULTRASONIC RESPONSE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240048249 titled 'UTILIZATION OF MICROPHONE ULTRASONIC RESPONSE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a system that utilizes a microelectromechanical system (MEMS) microphone device to capture both ultrasonic and audio-band signals simultaneously. The system also includes processing circuitry that adjusts a configuration parameter of the MEMS microphone device based on the ultrasonic signal.

  • The system includes a MEMS microphone device that captures both ultrasonic and audio-band signals at the same time.
  • The processing circuitry is responsible for adjusting a configuration parameter associated with the MEMS microphone device based on the ultrasonic signal.
  • The ultrasonic signal is used to modify the configuration of the MEMS microphone device.

Potential Applications:

  • Ultrasonic signal analysis and detection
  • Acoustic imaging and mapping
  • Ultrasonic communication systems
  • Non-destructive testing and evaluation
  • Industrial process monitoring and control

Problems Solved:

  • Traditional microphones are not capable of capturing ultrasonic signals simultaneously with audio-band signals.
  • Adjusting the configuration of a microphone device based on ultrasonic signals is challenging without dedicated processing circuitry.

Benefits:

  • Simultaneous capture of ultrasonic and audio-band signals allows for comprehensive analysis and detection.
  • The ability to adjust the configuration parameter based on ultrasonic signals enhances the performance and accuracy of the microphone device.
  • Enables the development of advanced applications such as ultrasonic communication systems and acoustic imaging.
